Enclosure for car speakers

[Santo_101]

I have now 2 sets of 6" and 2 sets of 6x9" which I've wanted to repurpose into it's own enclosure alongside 1 or 2 Kicker L7 12" subwoofer for both home usage as well as in the car, but I have no build experience and now can only imagen how a setup like that would look like. Any thought's and/or idea's or even done a project of this kind already?

So you want to build a stunt wall? Just build the appropriate sized box for the sub and attach the speakers around the sub. Be sure the have those speakers on a separate amp from your interior speakers with an on off switch

If your intent is to line your rear deck with the speakers I personally advise against it but it's fairly simple to cut the deck and fab mounting surfaces for the speakers. The subs will exert force on those speaker unless they are in sealed enclosures. That said people have 6x9 in the rear deck all the time with subs. Modest sub stages don't cause damage but a large substage can damage the rear deck speakers

It's considered to build an enclosure for this in mainly stationwagons as that is what I mainly drive, and have 2 separate builds as I currently have two stationwagens available. So either double 6" and 6x9" or mix it up with one 6" and one 6x9" as well as the subwoofer
